      I am trying to downscale a 480p video signal to 480i to use on my crt. The 480i mode has a ton of horizontal flickering/shimmering. Apparently this has something to do with the deinterlacing process. Is there any way to turn it off?

        What is happening is probably that the OSSC Pro is dropping every other line instead of blending them, leaving some detail only visible in every other field.

        Try setting the scaling algorithm to GS Medium or Soft.

          I tried that and it didn’t change. Could a poor quality 15khz transcoder cause the shimmering? I bought this one.

            Exactly where is that converter in your setup? Are you placing it after the OSSC on the output of the extra AV card?

            What is the source you are trying to convert? Does 480p to 240p produce a good image?

              I attach the transcoder to the AV out, then attach the composite out to the TV.

              The source is my computer hdmi. The actual image quality is better than the cheap hdmi to composite I bought, but the image is also incredibly unstable with constant shimmering.

                There’s no flicker filter at the moment, so any fine pitch high-contrast content like small text is subject to flicker. You could try 240p mode instead if loss of static resolution is acceptable.

                  Is a rainbow strobe effect normal? It doesn’t just affect small text, it is apparent even in large mono-color areas. 240p mode does get rid of most of it. By “shimmering” I meant extreme dot crawl. I’m sorry for being non-descriptive.
